Okay, so, I’ve always found myself drawn to sorts of oddities. Maybe they don’t seem odd to you at all, and that’s fine – but to me, they are odd, and that is what I like about them. I didn’t actually realize until just this morning how many strange things I liked. They all have the same atmosphere, but I’m not quite sure how to describe it. So, I’ve decided to compile a list of these things, and I’ve called it ‘A List of the Weird’. Let’s begin!
- Ana Somnia – This is a really cool website. I’m not sure I would call it a ‘game’ per say, but Ana Somnia is a little girl who can’t sleep. You turn off the lights in her room and can watch as her strange and wild dreams unfold. It’s a light-sensitive website, but you can turn off the sensitivity and control it manually as well.
- Emily the Strange – Now, bear with me here, it’s been quite a long time since I read my last Emily the Strange book. You know what that means? It’s time for a re-read. Since the last one I read, I’m pretty sure a few other books have been released. But Emily the Strange is a really awesome series that’s pretty well worth looking into.
- Katy Towell’s Art – Katy Towell is a really awesome artist (and a super cool chick, as well). She makes animated shorts of some very, very skary childrin indeed. She is also the author of the book, Skary Childrin and the Carousel of Sorrow. It’s deliciously creepy (honestly I’ve just always wanted to describe something that way).
- Welcome to Nightvale – Honestly, this is a podcast that I only started listening to just the other day. It takes the form of a local radio broadcast for the creepy town of Nightvale, where there are a lot of strange and mysterious things happening. It’s super cool.
Doubtlessly there are more out there, but these were the four that were plaguing my thoughts all morning long.
